Expected behaviour

flake8 messages when hovering. This is VSCode 1.61:

Note the flake8 output on the first line

Actual behaviour

wiggly underlines are only 1 character wide, not the whole word.

pop up only includes base information and not flake8 messages

problems tab shows flake8 messages as expected

Steps to reproduce:

simple program with flake8 errors

x = "hi"

if x == "hello" or x == "hi":
    print("G'day")

❯ flake8 --select=B,B9,C,D,E,F,S,W,W504 --ignore=C812,C813,C815,C816,E203,E501,S101,W503,WPS111,WPS237,WPS301,WPS305,WPS306,WPS323,WPS336,WPS421,WPS465 --inline-quotes='"' --max-complexity=18 --max-imports=15 --max-line-complexity=18 --max-line-length=88 --max-local-variables=15 --max-module-members=15 --per-file-ignores="test_*:D102,DAR101,WPS110,WPS211,WPS226,WPS317,WPS432,WPS442,WPS450" --doctests --format="%(row)d,%(col)d,%(code).1s,%(code)s:%(text)s" crap.py

Can anybody confirm that those issues are referred to the same problem?

The hitbox issue has been fixed in the main branch of vscode. I guess it will be included in 1.63.0
